Read the Scientific "Journals" of Dr. Lucas McGeorge

The revered Dr. Lucas McGeorge has had his "Journals" published alongside Dr. Annette Kin. Neuroskeptic, pseudonymous blogger for Discover Magazine, "was attempting to expose (successfully, in most of the cases) the lack of rigor among what are known as 'predatory journals,' the hundreds, if not thousands, of open-access journals that exist online primarily to inflate academic resumes, charge for the 'privilege' of being published, or some weird combination of both."

"Three 'so-called scientific journals' were persuaded to publish a ''Star Wars'–themed spoof paper' written by 'Dr. Lucas McGeorge' and 'Dr. Annette Kin.'" Here's what they published:

“Involved in ATP production is the citric acid cycle, also referred to as the Kyloren cycle after its discoverer”

“Midi-chlorians are microscopic life-forms that reside in all living cells – without the midi-chlorians, life couldn’t exist, and we’d have no knowledge of the force. Midichlorial disorders often erupt as brain diseases, such as autism.”

“midichloria DNA (mtDNRey)” and “ReyTP”

Neuroskeptic even "put the legendary Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise monologue in the paper."
